Sorry about the misspellings. They are mostly typo's but I should have
used a spell checker. I am not going to use this as a class exercise
in the foreseeable future. BTW you misspelled mono-spaced ;-)

First Law of the Interent, eh?

Did you get the statistical perspective to answer your questions. At one
point ISTR that you were asking about attributable risk. I don't think
that the Tomsky invocation of Bayes' Theorem actually gives you AR. In
epidemiology there are several terms that are used to describe the excess
risk for condition X associated with exposure Y. Attributable risk and
attributable risk percent are distinct concepts. Are you still looking
for something along those lines?
